Search for new physics with atoms and molecules

MS Safronova, D Budker, D DeMille, DFJ Kimball… - Reviews of Modern …, 2018 - APS
This article reviews recent developments in tests of fundamental physics using atoms and
molecules, including the subjects of parity violation, searches for permanent electric dipole …

History of dark matter

G Bertone, D Hooper - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2018 - APS
Although dark matter is a central element of modern cosmology, the history of how it became
accepted as part of the dominant paradigm is often ignored or condensed into an anecdotal …

The QCD axion, precisely

GG Di Cortona, E Hardy, JP Vega… - Journal of High Energy …, 2016 - Springer
A bstract We show how several properties of the QCD axion can be extracted at high
precision using only first principle QCD computations. By combining NLO results obtained in …

Invisible axion search methods

P Sikivie - Reviews of Modern Physics, 2021 - APS
In the late 1970s, the axion was proposed as a solution to the strong CP problem, ie, the
puzzle why the strong interactions conserve parity P and the product CP of charge …

[BOOK][B] Stars as laboratories for fundamental physics: The astrophysics of neutrinos, axions, and other weakly interacting particles

GG Raffelt - 1996 - books.google.com
For centuries the heavens have been a natural laboratory to test the classical laws of motion,
and more recently to test Einstein's theory of gravity. Today, astrophysics has become a vast …

Light pseudoscalars, particle physics and cosmology

JE Kim - Physics Reports, 1987 - Elsevier
We review physics of light pseudoscalars (axions, majorons and familons) and their effects
in cosmology. The axions which solve the strong CP problem play important roles in …

A next-generation liquid xenon observatory for dark matter and neutrino physics

J Aalbers, SS AbdusSalam, K Abe… - Journal of Physics G …, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
The nature of dark matter and properties of neutrinos are among the most pressing issues in
contemporary particle physics. The dual-phase xenon time-projection chamber is the …

Mixing of the photon with low-mass particles

G Raffelt, L Stodolsky - Physical Review D, 1988 - APS
Photons can mix with low-mass bosons in the presence of external electromagnetic fields if
these particles—not necessarily of spin 1—couple by a two-photon vertex. Important …

Results from phase 1 of the HAYSTAC microwave cavity axion experiment

L Zhong, S Al Kenany, KM Backes, BM Brubaker… - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
We report on the results from a search for dark matter axions with the HAYSTAC experiment
using a microwave cavity detector at frequencies between 5.6 and 5.8 GHz. We exclude …

Astrophysical methods to constrain axions and other novel particle phenomena

GG Raffelt - Physics reports, 1990 - Elsevier
Various extensions of the standard model of elementary particle interactions predict the
existence of new particles such as axions, or “exotic” properties of known particles such as …
